SAVI Moves: Savannah Engel on Style, Strategy, and Storytelling

PR is not for the faint of heart—it’s cliques, war rooms, and more than a few late nights. But Savannah Engel, Founder of SAVI PR, hasn’t just survived it; she’s turned the chaos into a career that’s helped define a generation of fashion marketing.

From early stumbles and tough feedback to finding her rhythm, Savannah used grit, persistence, and her instinctive social wizardry to carve her path. She’s proof that what begins as “soft skills” can become the sharpest edge, transforming social grit into professional gold.

Together, she and Farryn trade stories about 20-hour days, the power of your network, why hiring is about personality as much as merit, and how blurred lines between work and life can create both magic and mayhem. They’re candid about the love of career, the myth of “having it all,” and the radical self-belief it takes to keep going anyway.
